Any of you fellow Alaskans who are now Double Rifle trash interested in a shoot this coming Saturday (23 Oct) at Birchwood? If interested sign up and we can meet at about 10 AM. My biggest fear is when I die my wife will sell my guns for what I told her they cost. | ||

Thanks Mike but I ferried the last plane in a couple days ago and am picking up the frozen meat tonight and hopefully it will thaw in time to finish butchering by the weekend. Good thing I brought in a few extra boxes of ammo for the 450/400. I even have the 505 with me.

I'll be there 10-1130 with a few doubles, a 10 and 2 8s, + a howdah and my 4-bore single and lots of ammo (at a wide range of levels) if anyone wants to give'em a shot. I'll also have a Navy Arms copy of a Greener Light Harpoon gun and a few dummy harpoons to chrono and play with. Come on out! I'm looking forward to it!

I'll see. I'll like be up to the task. Unfortunately the double is in "hawk" with Walter. Perhaps Walter has a new owner for her by now.

He'll probably already know where it's at Jack. But if not tell him to turn right at North Birchwood and turn right at the airport area. He'll smell the burnt powder!

I'd love to make it as I've been invited to shoot doubles with at least one of the posters here, on other forums, and I just purchased a new Sabatti in 45-70. Alas, I'm deployed, and will have to wait for "next time" yet again. Enjoy guys.

If you're the one that has the sabatti out at AkCG.. I saw it yesterday! It looks nice! I left my number with Steve so you can contact me when you get back from the sandbox. Then we can go out and play with it. Keep your head down! NRA Life ASSRA Life DRSS Today's Quote: Give a man a fish and he eats for a day.

Yes, that would be mine! Picked her up while in TX training for the deployment, I know its not the nicest gun in the world, but at 25, its a double I can afford, so it had to be mine. Only Angels and Aviators have wings | |||

Yeah and I'm really bummed out about it too! But since this is the end of my season and it'll be a long time yil the next paycheck I need to keep at it.

A good time today. Unfortunately I had to leave early. Not doubles, but we did confirm that both the harpoon gun and 4-bore should be adequate for baby seal defense.   If you look close, there is a 1" diameter hole right between the eyes, which is much more difficult than a frontal brain shot on an elephant due to target size. In the event of a charge I think the preferred technique is to use the harpoon to pin'em to the ice, then the rifle to finish'em off.

My wife says the same thing. I try to explain that I can't afford a therapist because I have to spend all of my money on rifles and hunting.

We were at the last 50 yard range before you hit the first 100 yard range from before 10am till almost 1 PM. My biggest fear is when I die my wife will sell my guns for what I told her they cost. | |||

Sorry we missed them! Due to the number of folks there (very crowded for a a chilly Nov day) the 50 yard range had the most room. Next time we should be more explicit about where to meet and what everyone is driving. I should be able to make it next Saturday at the same time barring anything unforeseen.

Sorry we missed you guys! When we drove in, we saw what was either a LEO training class, or "tactical" fans of some sort on the shorter ranges and breezed right on by. Man was it packed. When we signed in, we asked the RO if he knew where you guys were, but he didn't know anything. Hopefully next time. Sure was a great day to shoot...this weather can't last much longer! | |||
